Salzburg’s Idyllic Alpine Hut Villages

Experience the perfect winter's break

The crackling of an open fire, the creaking of the heavy beams, the homely scent of wood and that unbeatable feeling of contentment when you’re inside all cosy and warm when it’s tingling with cold outside. Rustic huts belong to winter and mountains like skiers to snow. It’s natural that you’d yearn to spend your holiday embraced in feelings of warmth and satisfaction, just concentrating on your well-earned rest and relaxation, so a stay in a hut could be just what you’re looking for. Salzburg’s Alpine hut villages combine all the comforts of a hotel holiday with the cosiness and rustic charm of a mountain hut.
